INTERNATIONAL WOMEN'S DAY - 2022

“A strong woman looks a challenge in the eye and gives it a wink”

–Gina Carey

International Women’s Day is a global day celebrating the social, economic, cultural and political achievements of women. It celebrates womanhood and pays tribute to the indomitable spirit of women across the globe. It's root lies in the early 1900s when oppression and inequality was spurring women to become more vocal and active in campaigning for change. Significant activity is witnessed worldwide as groups come together to celebrate women’s achievements.

International Women’s Day is celebrated every year on March 8. The event aims to highlight and recognise the achievements of women in different spheres while also bringing attention to important issues including gender discrimination that exist even today. The theme of 2022 International Women’s Day is “gender equality today for a sustainable tomorrow”.
